Atletico Madrid are flying high in La Liga this season and are always a difficult team to beat in whatever competition they are playing in. However, it looks as if another draw at the weekend will make winning La Liga pretty unlikely this season with Barcelona sweeping away everyone placed in their path. That means Madrid are in a position where qualification for the Champions League next season is inevitable and they can concentrate on trying to win it this season.  In the group stages, Atletico did suffer a home defeat to Benfica but won two of their three away games including getting revenge on Benfica. PSV are a point clear of Ajax in the Dutch league and are on an 18 game unbeaten run in the league. They were unbeaten at home in the group stages but didn't win any of their away matches. That really puts pressure on them to try and get some lead here. Of 24 games in European competition against Spanish sides, PSV have only won four. There's a bit of a class gap between the Dutch league and the top La Liga sides so I think Madrid can go to Holland and get a win.
